Pomodoro Playlists

Given some music for working and some music for breaks, generate a pomodoro playlist: ~25m of work music followed by ~5m of break music.

1. optionally, create a virtualenv to store your stuff and activate it
2. pip install -r requirements.txt
3. create a Spotify app (and in app settings, set "redirect URI" to http://127.0.0.1:8080)
4. put your app credentials in your environ

   export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID='xxx'
   export SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET='yyy'
   

   • or if we're buds, just ask me to lend you my creds
5. generate your playlist with ./app.py [work_music_url] [break_music_url] [...settings...] (see ./app.py -h for full usage instructions).
   • the work|break_music_url parameters may be any open.spotify.com URL for a playlist, album, or artist. (To get this URL, find the music in question, and navigate to "..." > "share" > "copy link".)
